i think maybe steve g is right..sam coplin got the tracks from george mcgregor..how i dont know. as for writing the tunes were probaby writen by sam or even the band members. dont think its anything to do with ashford simpson or armstead. i`m willing to be proved wrong tho take a look at these https://www.popsike.com/RARE-NORTHERN-SOUL-45-STEMMONS-EXPRESS-KARMA-201/200071886354.html https://www.popsike.com/Stemmons-Express-45-Love-Power-Rare-Pressing-Northern-Soul-Vinyl-Record/300631172726.html

i thought it was dallas....jm said houston in his sales pitch... the stemmons expressway..was that where kennedy was shot

the longer pressed matrix has better sound quality than the shorter matrix and the stamp in the runout is embedded where as the shorter matrix is scratched in... longer matrix is much rarer also...just look at popsike

not rare at all joe but pure quality imho

the first 20/25 releases are very varied indeed

25 for the chubby i reckon for a sale. i think the longer version of gregg diamond is immense..the 7in lacks a bit.. have both,,wount part with em

there were no precautions in the old days

has anybody notice the two karma variations..blue text with correct spelling ( love power) and black text with incorrect spelling ( love tower)

how did those backing tracks end up in dallas...i dont think ive ever seen a wand issue

sold my stunning clean white demo last year for £125

less than 500 for john wesley..........more than 125 for marva lee

that jackie wilson is well worth a punt

i think the grey and white copies are promo`s... the issue could be on that design also but cant recall seeing one?. issues on the blue screen print are quite rare

over £100 for a sandie shaw pye release..wow who would a thought. it has a strange catalogue number that doesnt tie in with regular uk stuff. i think it was a export copy dutch maybe... never seen a stock copy

ooops

nice one..still have my issue that i bought as a teenager.....as i say i had rthe 72 demo copy..i`d had it a year or two before i realised it was a re release

yes a great podcast chalky....listened to it yet again last night

who said it was bad nev. im not talkin rare records here i`m talkin records period hamilton movement is good but imo al green did at least 5 records that i rate better sinple as that

i like em both but neither would be in my top 1000

i think theres two uk demo`s also they look exactly the same but one has the 1970 release date and the other a 1972 date..... thats the one i used to have

which one sean..hamilton or love stormy..........oops just read above bit

goin back to the jayboy releases,..the sheppards how do you like it /stubborn heart came out in 1970/71 was this another one that they put out just as a soul release or was there demand..i thought it would have been much later when it got played

but they are still both classed as northern soul even tho totally different.styles.....never really got on with the tony clarke..a bit of a dirge.....hamilton movement all the way for me but only an 8

that one on ebay been there a while as its a bit minty.. but he may well and should come down a bit https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Glen-Miller-Where-Is-The-Love-1967-UK-45-DOCTOR-BIRD-/350586044224?pt=UK_Records&hash=item51a08e7f40

no i wasnt sayin it wasnt steve just a bit odd why it should be different..i`d love to hear it
